I have a Kershaw Rescue Blur. I may get a Blur Glassbreaker, which is very similar to the Rescue Blur, except it has a pointed tip. There are times when the rounded tip can come in handy, but it's always nice to pierce through something.

Very low end benchmade. At one time there were few "cheap" benchmades. At the time spiderco was eating up the market because they had alot of $50 knives.

It's on par with a red box. Not all red boxes were made over seas but alot are, there the entry level "walmart" knife. In the firearms world it could be compaired to another company making firearms under the colt name...i.e. the .22 pistols. It says "colt" but is it? There cheap, better than some but still a entry level knife.

Black box is there "duty" knives. Great EDC knives, This is the minimum that I would buy. They are geared more for the LEO/tactical community. There rough tough work knives.

Blue box is a classier knife, better than what 95% of the people carry. It's a special type of knife made with better materials and workmanship than most. It will change your views on a knife and you wont go back to a cheaper knife afterwards. They will last a life time and you will never regret spending $200 on one.

Gold box is best of the best. Better materials, more exotic.... more of a "semi custom" knife. I've never owned one, would love to though.

+1 for spending some extra dough on a quality knife like a Benchmade. I carry the Triage for work and love it.
I've had cheap knives like CRKT, which are okay for an inexpensive knife, but they dull easily. Still, if you have to pick a less expensive knife, a nice lightweight Spyderco would be a good option.

My 2 favorite knives are my Benchmade auto stryker, (Mil Issue) and SOG Trident. The SOG was not that expensive but very nice. My Benchmade automatic was free, but very hard to get as a civilian. It is considered a swithblade or auto knife. Air Force survival switchblade designed to have a pilot or aircrew cut themselves free from a parachute stuck with 1 hand.

Just got a blue box benchmade griptillian so freaking nice...retail is north of $200 I got a great deal on one only 250 made. Has really nice grips and a cerakoted blade, wish is was a straight blade but I'm happy.
